Symm is strong and her ult charges too fast but she doesn't dictate the flow of the entire meta like Ana does
Bionic Grenade alone is more problematic then all of Symm's kit

sym ain't shit compared to soldier, d.va or ana

For real. All it takes to remove her from play is not being an idiot. D Va and Ana are effin' stupid.

and while the shield generator being able to be placed near spawn is silly, by now everyone knows all the spots it is so it usually gets destroyed much faster
really the only thing silly about sym is she can outdps a lot of dps characters in close-ish range
anyway what the hell is going on with the game right now
release a new map without new skins (thought for sure ana or pharah were going to get 2 more...) and the event is still up and oh btw d.va, ana and soldier are still broken
The five Diablo III-themed skins are also added, FYI.

D.Va is not broken, the combination of her health pool + Ana grenade and healing is broken. On her own, she is fine. Ana is broken. Soldier could use a bit of tweaking because, again, combined with Ana's ult his ultimate is absolutely broken.
D.Va's ult is still mostly a zoning ult and I see virtually no high level players having that hard of a time destroying her, especially considering Zarya still fucking dominates despite her energy nerfs.

I'm still scared of what they'll do to ana tbh.
She is pretty much the only thing that keeps solo queue support bearable. They just need to tackle the nade, nothing else. But I'm worried they'll reduce her single shot healing or something.

just fucking
make the grenade do 50% more healing/50% less healing and apply to a max of like 3 targets, not 100%/0% on everyone you want and it does damage
fuck that thing

Even a D.va with a harmony orb is near immortal, i'd rather they just boosted her movement speed even more but nerfed her health a bit
defense matrix + 750 effective hp is boooooring to fight against. Maybe not broken but as others have said, certainly not fun
are you serious? of the tanks she's probably the most broken. I can pull up so many grandmasters and pros saying they shouldn't have given her the health boost AND the speed boost that it should have been one or the other.
She completely nullifies Reaper because of her beefiness and chase abilities now.

D.va just sucks to kill
If she didn't have the second wind then it wouldn't be as bad but goddamn, ever since they made the defense matrix not mediocre she's been a massive pain in the ass
She should not have Roadhog health...

they could honestly remove the healing boost or the debuff on ana's grenade entirely and as long as they didn't touch her other stuff she would still be more than viable

So did the event end because it still shows up on my menu and arcade/
Because he is. The only thing that is a bit too good on him is heal station, and that's not the craziest thign ever,

Had such a fun Ana KOTH game last night. I'm going to miss that old grandma. I hope they don't destroy her on console.

he's far and away the best dps character now so they either need to nerf him somehow (maybe damage reduced from 21 to 20 and healing rate on bioitic field reduced) or buff the other dps characters
I know I'm no pro or grandmaster but every single time I've picked soldier in the last week i've gotten gold elims and damage. every. single. time.

He's not at most levels of play. I get that at higher levels where people can actually aim he is probably doing similar damage to McCree, tracer etc. But he requires so much less actual skill in tracking and aiming that it is much much easier for him to do far more damage than they can at lower levels, which is where most people are.

Its not a lore heavy map so why would they get skins. Jesus christ you people whine about everything.
Psychoward

I wish blizzard would go back to making some balance changes separate, while Ana still definitely needs to be looked at on console they should keep in mind that healing anything that isn't a tank on console is much more of an issue than on pc
Psychoward
Banned
it's not a lore heavy map becuase blizzard decided it wasn't
it's been however many months since release and we've gotten a grand total of 3 new skins that aren't timed, one of which is linked to their shitty moba
While I understand why they had to neutralize the healing potential for several of the Support Heroes, it makes it rougher when you have to solo heal and the rest of your team will refuse to pick a second healer.

Only got to play one day over event period due to house move, got lucky with Mai skin.
Will these (and other) event skins ever make a return?

I mean, I get at lower levels Soldier is doing very well because he gives less mechanically skilled players access to real damage. Still, I'd rather not see him get a damage nerf because once people have reasonable aim a lot of it balances out. The DPS class in general is the most well balanced it has ever been, at least against each other. The only reason Solider is a stand out in pick rates is that most other DPS can't deal with things like D.Va or Ana.

Reaper is even easier to aim with and I've beaten him in cqc as Soldier.
If they wanna keep his damage at 21 instead of 20 or 19 they should look at reducing the healing rate of biotic field.
IMO Roadhog is still the best tank in the game alongside Rein who is just too good for team fights. Hogs are devastating, especially one that is good with his ult and can always land hooks. I think his hook needs a nerf though, it's too generous.
Roadhog imo is a must when going 3 tanks, he iw pretty much what makes a comp like that work. He can isolate high priority targets, body block, heal, and do a shit ton of damage.
D'va is really good, but Mei can still fuck her shit up with a little bit of help. Not to say she doesn't need a nerf, but it I wouldn't put her at the top of the list.

Yea, just nerfing grenade would be plenty.

What if they took off 1 damage per hit? Would that still be too much?
I do see now though what you're talking about wrt the cd and how that would make him less of an issue...
Yep. I hope they don't touch anything else... her gun is perfect imo.
His damage is at 20, what. I'm more in favor of tweaking the CD on healing field than lowering heal rate on it, but the heal rate is a bit ridic in some situations, It's the only thing about him that stands out (and is a large reason why we pick him in tank meta atm).
If Reaper failed to kill you at close range I'd say that;s more on the Reaper's fault. He just fucked up.
Eh, it'd be a very annoying change to deal with, and at worst it hits fall off numbers in a way where he needs an extra bullet to kill things. I think atm the killing power is right on par with McCree, and I wouldn't want it to go below it again.

Get rid of the healing boost completely. Just make it heal. Even a 50% healing buff makes healing too strong in this game. She already heals nearly 100 health a second without grenade buff active.
Psychoward
Banned
I thought it went from 17 to 21 with his recent buff, guess not. But yeah either healing rate or cd needs to go
I don't know if it needs a nerf so much as the networking needs improvement. Seagull was talking about at one of the tournaments where they did LAN there was 0 bullshit hooks. They only pop up when server latency is a thing.
Personally, I think he should never have first strike after his hook. That way he can gib some but not every single hero. Ones that can escape, escape.
Sorry, I meant to say sprays.
It's the Male Witch Doctor, the Female Demon Hunter, the Male Barbarian, the Female Wizard, the Male Crusader, & the Male Monk, in case if anyone wanted to know.
